Multiple Views Effective for Gait Recognition Based on Contours

Gait is one of well recognized biometrics that has been widely used for human identification. However, the current gait recognition might have difficulties due to viewing angle being changed. This is because the viewing angle under which the gait signature database was generated may not be the same as the viewing angle when the probe data are obtained. This paper present an effective Multi-View Gait Recognition based on Motion Contour (MVGRMC) approach which tackles the problems mentioned above. Initially the background modeling is done from a video sequence. Subsequently, the moving foreground objects in the individual image frames are segmented using the background subtraction algorithm.
